J.R. Ewing will get a send-off with a proper funeral on Dallas.

TNT has announced that it will hold a funeral for Larry Hagman’s memorable character at some point in the 15-episode second season, but that it hasn’t been filmed or scheduled yet. Hagman died at age 81 over the Thanksgiving weekend.

The network isn’t saying how Ewing will be killed off in the series. Hagman kept working until soon before his death due to complications of cancer and will appear in several episodes of the new season, which begins next month.
